“It is impossible to tell what might have been the character of the church today, had its members been doing the works of Christ. It is a sad fact that the great proportion of God’s professed people have not had faith in Christ as their personal Saviour…” “The devotion and experience of the professed people of God are not in harmony with the light and privileges that God has given them. They are to be children of the light, children of the day, and yet many who have had exalted privileges fail to manifest corresponding faith and works. Jesus says to them as He said to the city wherein He had done mighty works, and they failed to appreciate the light and to confirm their life to it,.... “Woe unto thee, Chorazin! Woe unto thee, Bethsaida! For if the might works, which were done in you, had been done in Tyre and Sidon, they would have repented long ago in sackcloth and ashes,’…. “Of those who boast of their light, and yet fail to walk in it, Christ says, “But I say unto you, it shall be more tolerable for Tyre and Sidon at the day of judgment, than for you.” [Matthew 11:21-25] By Mrs. E. G. White RH August 1, 1893
